But has anyone here programmed a game for a particular console such as nes or mega drive for example? I am wondering how people went about programming games back then

Most of the stuff is hand-coded in Assembly. It wasn't until after at least a year after NES's release that any sort of higher-level language was used. Basically, it's just manual manipulation of the registers and hardware components. However you manage to do it is the way that works.
